ton to keep in power all the State
officers for four years longer, in order
to strengthen the Democratic party at
large, and insure its success-let all
side issues be frowned down, and let
Louisiana show united and harmo-
nious front.
The cry of Reform is vacant, bla-
tant fraud. The country is marching
on in prosperity and peace; Cleve-
land, McEnery, and the host of other
Southern leaders are carryingit safely,
to the end that this country shall re-
main one and united. No doubt there
are hundreds of other men fully as
able and as patriotic, but our leaders
of to-day have the reins in hand there
fore to them belongs the driving. 10
change might be disastrous, to preserve
them in their places insures success.
When the chances of success are
doubtful, and the majority is uncer-
tain, expediency and policy are as
much a part of politics as voting
Therefore, as a branch of the Louisi-
ana Democracy has become its own
accuser, and it endeavors to embody
within itself an element whose very
instincts make it an enemy-it is we'll
for those who are true to their own
cause to close their ranks with a solid
front, and thereby remain unchanged
in their policy
1t would be more than folly to
change leaders in the face of such a
complication; especially as this State
is considered doubtful one, having
once been counted in by the Repnb-
licans. There is no personality in the
case and McEnery as we'll as the rest
of the State officers at large, are mere
ly the instruments towards an end, anc
that end is to keep the record of the
Democracy unchanged-to insure 1T
tenure of power beyond a doubt, ane
to carry its weight in the presidential
election with such force, that nei'he
dispute nor suspicion will mar tn
result.

In Brief, and to the Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordercd
liver is misery. Indigestion is foe
t, good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is
one of the most complicated and won
defful things in existence. 1t is easily
put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy
food, bad cookery, mental worry, late
hours, irregular habits, and many other
things which ought not to be, have
made the American people nation of
dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has
done a wonderful work in reforming
this sad business and making the
American people so healthy that they
can enjoy their meals and be happy,
Remember No happiness without
health. But Green's August Flower
brings health and happiness to the
dvspeptic. Ask yonr druggist for a
bottle. Seventy five cents.

HERE are some very spicy re-
marks which were prompted by Sam
Small's statement that he went within
half mile of hell for the Democratic
party. The Philadelphia Press says !:
Without pausing to pass upon the pro-
priety of Brother Slnalfs language we
may remark that when he reformed and
resolved not to travel that other half mile
tho Georgia Democracy lost a mighty
valuable member.
The Macon, Ga, Telegraph replies
as follows:
'sThe first time we ever saw the Rev
81, he was on the balcony of the National
Hotel, exhorting a mob of negroes to
"yindicate the rights bequeathed to them
by their forcfathers, peaceably, if posi-
BILE, forcibly if necessary" Under his in
splred eloquence, MIR. Hammond, the Dem
ocratic Congressional nominee, was de-
feated in Fulton county. In justice to
the Rev. 81, 1t should be said, that he
was, if possible, a little drunkcr than his
negro friends"
Both Sam Jones and Sam Small
are now engaged in throwing mud at
the Democratic party without any pro-
vocation, and in such an earnest man.
ner as to lead one to believe that they
have, like other worthless of their stripe
been paid for their tronble.-[NeH

Wonderful Cures.

Jacob Geiger, retail druggist, of Alex
andria, La, says: have been selling DR..
Kings New Discovery, Electric Bitters
and Bucklen's Arnica Salve for four years.
Have never handled remedies that sell as
we'll, or give such universal satisfaction.
There have been some wonderful cures
effected by these medicines in this city.
Several eases of pronounced consumption
have been entirely cured by use of few
bottles of DR.. Kings New Discovery, ta-
ken in connection with Electric Bitters.
We guarantee them always. Sold by ia
cob Geiger.

Greatly Excited.

Not few of the citizens of Alexandria
have recently become greatly excited
over the astounding facts, that several of
their friends who had been pronounced by
their physicians as incurable and beyond
all hope, suffering with that dreaded mon
ster consumption, have been completely
cnred by DR.. Kings New Discovery for
consumption, the only remedy that does
positively cure all throat and lung dis
eases, coughs, colds, asthma and bron-
chitis. Trial bostles free at Jacob Gel
gers Drug Store. Large bottles sold at
one dollar.

Headaches. .

Pain in the Side and Back, and Con-
stipation, indicate that the digestive and
excretory organs are in a disordered
condition, and that q laxative is needed.
For this purpose, Ayers Cathartic Pills
are the best medicine that can be used.

I have found entire relief from Consti-

Governor Zuhck left at 7;30 last night for the scene of the penitentiary fight and inasmuch as the fight lasted but three minutes, and was concluded twelve and a half hours before the governor left our city, his peril can het be considered as very gfest. Like the recent abolishment of the Vulture postoffice, the governor will doubtless claim credit for suppressing the rot, but as he never negotiated the sale of the territorial prison, like the yulture mine, his demagoguery seems the more apparent.--Ariaonan.

 Col. Ingersell said to me tbe other evening:
 "Life IS a railroad train, on which every passenger knows he must be killed. Maybe to-day, maybe to-mor- row, but somewhere down the line be must meet his doom. AhlI have no use for a world with death in 1t, and tue jolly face grew sad, the clear, honest eyes shadowed with pain as he spoke.
 wondered if this great man did not know that the folly and fallacy of hls theorles of future life were ex- pressed in the words he uttered.
 wonder if he does not feel that tbe beautiful and holy love winch uuites his family IS divine, and cannot end with this world.

The discovery in St. Louis of well. defined and unmistakable case of lep- rosy was brought to the attention of the International Medical Convention, which met lately m Washington, by a St. Louis physician who IS national authority on diseases of tho skin, Dr. Amant H 0hmanu-D -Dumesnil. The matter excited great attention among the physicians attending the Conven- tion, for the reasons that leprosy in the interior cities of the United States is very rare, and that no case of the disease has ever before been known in Missouri.

The Mobetjs (Texas) Panhandle says: Ben Aasterson believes that Johnson grass is great ss forage plant. He sowed an acre and a balt last spring on the sod, and has cut SIX tons from the atch. The land is sub- irrigated, bottom land, but the ground had httle preparation for the seed; and Ar. Masterson says he has never seen anything growing like that grass. He also says that the cattle and horses around his place don't have to be taught to eat it at all, and contrary to the generally accepted belief, seem eager to graze on it.

About four months ago, Mrs. Lettes, wife of a farmer near Lathrop, Mo, was in the garden with her son, when two snakes were seen fighting, and she told her son to kill them. Taking the hoe he mashed both their heads, Mrs. Lettss intently watching him all the time. October 10th twins were born to Mrs. Lsttss. The heads of both ware flat and resembled those of anakes, while their forked tongues shoOt out constantly, No attempt bas been made to dress the monstrosities, and they have been kept in separate boxes. The moment they are put to- gether they commence to fight and shoot out their tongues Tn horrible manner. They are at present alive and well.
